It's not anecdotal. There's no doubt there is a massive downturn in tech and in general right now. There has never before been such large revisions to job numbers. The latest is that massive print of 653k jobs in Q2 was all a lie.

The goal is to make reality checks a habit. It turns out dream-you still has their habits.
Spotify boasts a huge free user base, when I looked at their financials, I mathed that a paying user generating 6x as much revenue as the ad supported users. They simply can't raise their payouts and support free users.
The point is that no one in practice selects a random sample of the people living near them. Everyone they meet is from some self-selected sub-group—the people who live close to X park, the people who work at Y place, the people who shop at Z store. And the larger the city, the more people there are nearby you who are like you, so your total variety experienced will be smaller unless you're actively going out of your way to go places that you don't normally enjoy.

So while OP may be wrong about a random sample of people in SF, they're probably correct about the people that they know in SF.

In a small town everyone shops at the same store, visits the same parks, works out at the same gym. There's only one library and a few restaurants, so there are fewer opportunities to self-select into smaller groups.
> unsociable to ignore international law and agreements just because they're not convenient

My entire point is this is already the status quo. Nobody—other than Europe—is following the post-WWII rules anymore. There is a new set of conventions being de facto agreed to, and they will be set by the players actually at the table.

Don't look at it as us vs them. Recruiters are part of your (future) team. Maybe not your direct team, but once you get bad people in your team you'll want them to do a better job.. Chicken vs egg.
Apply where you actually want to apply and trust that the recruiter does his job.
As someone who has little experience in this topic but has come to a similar conclusion, I think the main downside of this strict separation you're recommending is performance/efficiency. Have you noticed that to be a problem in practice? It's not always clear whether the simplest solution can actually be feasible, or perhaps that is just a reflection of still untapped understanding of the problem domain.

Joining a defensive treaty (NATO) is not a real provocation, but is rather a post hoc justification for Putin‘s desires.
As someone who automates everything and normally loves this type of thing, my approach for job hunting has been way different. Instead of spray and pray, I spend a week or so deeply researching where I want to work and figure out how to get there role-wise. Everything 100% manual and focused, no more than 8 total companies.

Maybe spray and pray works if you’re more junior, but later in your career you’ll want to be very picky about where you spend your time interviewing because the roles are long term and have a huge impact on your life.

I think the major thing stopping people from just going their own way is healthcare coverage. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)

I wonder if I can hack a business model that somehow provides healthcare but also gathers together sourced projects, and freelancers to bid on building them, while also getting healthcare. (And if you opt out of healthcare, you can take the difference. Maybe.) It may not result in 100% employment, but it could potentially provide a source of income while looking for something more fulltime. And I would help coordinate, while also vetting people.

Also, not sure if related to the difficulty in tech, but it might depend on your ethnicity, and not in the way you might think: https://fox11online.com/news/nation-world/major-us-companies...

Also anounced was a new natural gas pipeline from Russia, many mega units of somekind or another.

I wouldn't even call it ageism. Its crazy-making x nepotism. People have stopped treating companies as a vehicle to deliver something into the economy, instead its like a great big Mastadon to be clung to like a tick and sucked dry. Fuck the accountant regime.
It's highly dependent on the manager I'm afraid and impossible to guess who's on the other side of that.

The process outlined in the post also isn't a path to writing a good cover letter. You don't want to just go over your resume again you want to either talk about things that wouldn't be there (e.x. why you want this job specifically, because your 100% applying because this is the unicorn job for you, not because you need money to feed yourself) or expanding on how something on your resume uniquely qualifies you (I worked on this project that's very similar to what your doing)

If it's lining up your resume to the job description (you want someone who can write Scala, I have used Scala in my past 3 jobs) a resume is a better format for that. But that's all the LLM has context to do.

Oh yeah, ideally you'd also tune your resume to the job too.

This is a seriously left-field suggestion, because, it's neither a streaming service nor a recommendation algorithm, but over the years I've never found anything better than last.fm for classification of music.

For as long as I can remember, last.fm has had the ability to show you similar artists when given any one particular artist. And it's remarkably good, in my opinion.

With it, I've discovered so much great music that I'd have never stumbled upon organically.

It's also totally free to browse and without signing up. For example, browse artists similar to Jean Knight: https://www.last.fm/music/Jean+Knight (scroll down to "Similar Artists", or just tack on /+similar to the URL)
IMO, I dislike that kind of mixing several concepts into the same name that software engineering is full of.

Abstraction means removing details from the thing you present. Generalization means making the same representation valid for several different things.

Are abstractions that don't generalize valuable? Well, maybe there is something better to be found, but those are the bread-and-butter of software engineering; they are what everybody spends almost all of their time writing.

Are generalizations that don't abstract valuable (or even possible)? Well, not if they don't abstract at all, but there are plenty of valuable generalizations that abstract very little. Hell, we have all those standardizing organizations that do nothing more than creating those.

Are the best interfaces the ones that achieve most of both of those? Honestly, I have no idea, there are other goals and if you optimize to extreme levels, they start to become contradictory.
How old are you? I'm curious about demographics
I think it's pretty telling that they don't have an option for the ad supported users, when they make up like 70% of Spotifies userbase.
It’s likely always been that way. Cities are crowded and more expensive, but have more jobs and opportunities. Rural areas are boring, but cheaper.
I suspect the time traversing stations is an arbitrarily small wait time rather than actual typical connection intervals. Looks like they map based on the fastest train (even when that's once a day and the others take about 50% longer) and the assumption that if I walked from the station instead of boarding the train I could still get ~9 miles away by walking across open fields seems generous...

> the kind of knowledge an organisation would kill over

That's the wrong place to look a motive because you are right, the consequences of corporate malfeasance are rarely existential for the organisation. They pay the fine, fire whoever broke the law and move on... and here we find where to look for motive.

A killing would not be ordered by a boardroom but by an individual or tight circle for their direct personal benefit rather than wider collective benefit. If an executive is looking to lose millions, personal legal consequences and a ruined career... now there is motive.

There is also the less logical corporate criminal (e.g. ebay) where it's not personal benefit but a tornado of ego, paranoia and delusion. They escalate some minor business beef into a mind-consuming psychopathic obsession taking ever more extreme actions against their perceived enemy.

> Spam-filters, actually. Once they became self-modifying, spam-filters and spam-bots got into a war to see which could act more human, and since their failures invoked a human judgement about whether their material were convincingly human, it was like a trillion Turing-tests from which they could learn. From there came the first machine-intelligence algorithms, and then my kind.

Similarly, I found the kickstart.nvim immensely helpful as a jumping off point.

I take your point about the trim wheels moving, though that is not a case of force feedback. More generally, it might be argued that Boeing's original intent with MCAS was indeed to provide force feedback to the pilot via input controls to indicate, but not completely prevent, that the pilot is approaching or about to exceed flight control limits, but it did so by diverging from mapping pilot inputs to control surface outputs - so it hits both sides of your dichotomy.

Furthermore, Boeing diverged further from mapping pilot inputs to control surface outputs once initial flight testing showed that the original version of MCAS was insufficiently effective to satisfy its purpose. In a fateful decision, Boeing chose to increase the power of MCAS to the point where it effectively became a stick-pusher at either high AofA or in the event of a single AofA sensor fault, while contriving to hide this from the FAA, pilots, and those who train pilots. This took any consideration of differences in design philosophy in a whole new (and much darker) direction.

Most of the rest of what you say is broadly in agreement with what Radu094 wrote.

Absolutely. I mean I remember 20y ago when someone's solution to spam was paying a small fee. Not what you want, but it's gotta be somewhere there. There has to be a cost to it, but it probably shouldn't be directly monetary. Submission delay might work.
This is ridiculous. It would take heroic effort for VW to prevent themselves from silently uploading malicious firmware to VW cars. There are ways to do this, but it’s also a separate problem from the problem that should actually be solved here.
No, I hired them myself at the behest of the company, trained them, and then was fired because they were cheaper.
Even if it doesn't cost people will generally not fight. Seriously, go look at all the people complaining on Reddit about their Bosses but don't even bother to fight back by looking for a new job.

They had been slapping on a bunch of "AI" tools this year, all of which required me to manually converse with the AI to categorize transactions. I was wondering what I was even paying Bench for with how much manual work I had to do each month i.r.t. to my books.
An vast array of options are available.

Moreover there is an entire body of international law and established practice of proportional response. No, these are NOT necessarily "breaking international law".

Start with sanctions. Impound the ships, study the spy equipment, and sell them for scrap. Prosecute the ship operators (then trade them for our political prisoners they hold).

If that doesn't stop it, take proportional and escalating retaliatory measures. Perhaps start with cyber-attacks. Move to kinetic as necessary.

These are just rough outlines; experts in the area can make more refined suggestions.

Vladimir Lenin famously and concisely described the operational algorithm of every petty bully and global dictator:

— “You probe with bayonets: if you find mush, you push.
If you find steel, you withdraw”

Just observe how Putin operates and it will within become instantly obvious that this is exactly how he operates. Obama took no significant forceful opposition when Putin invaded Crimea, and when Assad w/Russia's backing used chemical weapons in Syria. So Putin invaded Donbas, propped up Assad (until he no longer could), then attempted to obliterate the very idea of Ukraine. In contrast, Finland and Sweden joined NATO despite Putin's threats of nuclear war, and Putin then removed troops from near the Finnish border. Putin has threatened nuclear response to "red lines" in Ukraine and EU at least 45 times in in the past three years, and backed down every single time. There are decades of examples.

Attacking other countries' critical infrastructure is an act that could legitimately trigger a NATO Article 5 kinetic response.

Putin is pushing the edges to do as much damage as possible until he gets a response. Diplomacy means nothing; he has and will break every agreement whenever he sees it convenient. The ONLY response he will understand is force.

That does not mean "you touch a chip on my shoulder and we'll nuke you", it means attacking our (collective) infrastructure, committing open murder on our soil, attacking other countries, etc., etc., etc. will see a prompt forceful response that is somewhat proportional and imposes greater costs on Putin.

THAT is the only thing that will stop dictators like Putin and Xi.
I wrote this plugin for Neovim to be able to edit Jupyter notebook .ipynb files directly in Neovim. The native format for notebooks is quasi-binary json. This plugin uses the jupytext tool (https://github.com/mwouts/jupytext) to convert that json to a plain text representation (markdown or code) on the fly, and back to json when the file is saved.
What edge cases? The app already can’t locate the car if the car hasn’t checked in recently enough.

I often wonder about how much electricity is wasted (recording, encoding, transmitting, decoding) on videos where the video itself seems to add no actual value, and it would be just as effective as audio-only (or text-only) content instead. A study of YouTube videos in 2022 found that more than 15% of "videos" (i.e. billions of videos) contained only still images[1]. My wife watches a ton of short-form video (and in turn shows me the ones that she likes) and I'm baffled by how many are just scrolling text with people dancing in the background, or people holding up signs, or someone just talking into the camera (often sitting in the driver's seat of a car).

Hella distracting to have bloatware spam you like a pachinko parlor, but some folks will want that whole three ring circus cruise ship with the bearded lady tour, I guess.

Unix here is the IDE, which is fine, as I'm mostly not a programmer (why programmers keep launching flaming turds into production despite all the increasingly fancy tools is a somewhat entertaining question) and 35,000 lines of code is about the largest thing I deal with (vi, or a custom branch thereof). Plus some tools that I wrote that do exactly what I want them to. Multiple cores pegged because some AI nonesense is busy shoving crayons up its nose? No, thank you!

You're not obligated to give away your services. Red Hat was putting (still puts?) in their support contracts that to share GPL patches that they distribute to you as a customer will cancel the contract.

Matt Mullenweg distributes Free Software that anybody has the right to fork freely, although he may obligate them to strip the trademark out (although he hasn't until now.) How could Red Hat possibly be doing something right if he's doing something wrong? What is CentOS supposed to be?
The downside is that if all candidates are thinking like you, you are now hoping that the hiring team can sort through 100s of garbage Resumes to may be find you who may be a good fit. Your odds of being called for Round 1 is now much lower due to all that noise. Doesn't matter whose fault it is. Your probability of being called for Round 1 just went down significantly and this hurts you.
This is my experience as well. The candidate management tools (even the AI-powered ones) I’ve tried have been next to worthless.

Yeah... That's also an unachievable ideal.

On practice, there exist platonic abstractions that hide mechanisms and can be this way, but you also need to abstract parts of your requirements. And you will never be able to achieve that while abstracting your requirements.

When you are on YouTube there is a Music section that includes music videos, random uploads, etc. A lot of people are talking about that in this discussion and it is causing a lot of confusion.

It is odd. I don't think throughout Biden was willing to say he wanted Ukraine to win and take back it's territories. The drip feed of aid seemed more aimed at having a stalemate.
